huilloc hat

huilloc-hat This summer I visited a village with some outrageous textiles I particularly like. There are pictures here. Some people asked about the hats, which are described in a little more detail in this post. At the time I didn't have a picture of the top of a hat, and I now offer you this one, so you can see what I mean about it being decorated with braid. This is a hat bought in the market of the village. The people who live there were buying them too, so I presume it is the same as what they are wearing in the pictures. Though of course new, and therefore brighter and not dirty.
